re: ESPN to drop story tomorrow at 8 AM on power struggle in Pats organization

I thought the story was well done

However, I don’t quite understand the need to pump it up across platforms. Seems a bit sensational, no?

But I do think it’s funny some (most?) of the local Boston folks immediately called the article BS with the one guy who leaked it initially acting like he was a PR mule for the Patriots.

Are they doing so because they are naive or don’t want to risk losing access? I just thought it was funny the dude has “sources” telling him about a hit piece. I don’t think I’ve ever seen someone trying to get a “scoop” about an article written

Perhaps it was just done by Kraft/Brady and their reps trying to get ahead of it

Either way, Brady is painted as the villain while, surprisingly, Belicheck is the victim
